Vital, Olea align on neuro MR technologies

Vital Images, a Toshiba Medical Systems Group company and a developer of advanced visualization and analysis technologies for healthcare, and Olea Medical have partnered to provide thin-client neurological MR technologies on Vital's VitreaAdvanced enterprise visualization software.

"This partnership will serve as the foundation for providing a standardized platform for neuro MR studies," said Fayçal Djeridane, president and CEO at Olea Medical, based in La Ciotat, France.

The partnership will allow access throughout a hospital enterprise to neuro MR capabilities through VitreaAdvanced software, according to the Minneapolis-based Vital. Olea technologies provide clinicians with the capability to compute perfusion maps and review image series.
